Exhibition 'The Seaton Down Hoard' in Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery
Making History gallery
The Seaton Down Hoard will be on display for the first time in over 1,700 years. The 22,888 Roman coins are one of the most important Roman finds in Britain.
Thanks to a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund and generous donations from Pat and Sally Long, Clinton Devon Estates and many members of the public, the coins have been conserved and will be displayed alongside RAMM’s other Roman objects. The coin hoard is the third largest ever found in Britain. It tells a fascinating story about Devon towards the end of the Roman Empire.
